Production notes

The first Bugs Bunny cartoon directed by Robert McKimson.

Though released as a Looney Tune, the production number indicates this was originally a Merrie Melody.

Songs include: "Love Song of Kalua" (M.K. Jerome), Bugs Bunny; "Bugs Bunny and His Hula-Hula Lion," Bugs Bunny.

A different rendition of the Looney Tunes theme is played during the end titles.

This was McKimson's first Bugs cartoon and I think he hit the ground running with this one.
